MIR. TURPIE SEATED.

Republicans Waive Objection and Trust
Their Case the Elections Committee.
Special TO the IndianapoIis journal
WASHINGTON. Dec Sit decided. early
this morning. by the Republican members of
the Senate committee on privileges and elections
that Mr.. Turpie should be permitted to take his
seat and oath without objection. Mr.. Hosr,
chairman Of tho committee. said that this con.
clusion in way pointed to the merits of the
contest, but merely referred to the prirna facie
value of the certificate held by Mr.. Turpie. He
said the certificate practically as complete
as required for a prma facie case. and that mas
much as the committee would have to deter
mine the merits of the case, it might we'll 60
to the committee without the prejudice it would
entail should objection to his being Immediately
seated be made. The committee will be gin its
investigation into the election of Mr. Turpis as
soon as possible. but. as little actual work in
committee will be done before the holidays, it is
not probable that a report will be made until
late in January.
Mr. Turpie was good deal agitated when he
appeared to be sworn in, and ne was not sure of
his seat until he actually sat down in it A
gentleman who has conversed with the Repub-
licans of the Senate committee privileges
and elections says THAI the compromise which
was engineered through the caucus of Repub-
lican members of the State Senate and House of
Representatives conceding even the right of
Green Smith to appear upon the stand with the
Speaker of the House Of Representatives. and TO
finally announce the vote, made possible the
seating of Mr.. Turpie. because that compromise
recognized to a degree, the right OF Green
Smith to proceed and announce the result of the
votes of the two houses upon the question OF
United States Senator, and give his certificate
its prina facie virtue.
In the Republican caucus, on Saturday, in a
prolonged debate. it was decided to refer the
question of Turpie's certificate to the Republican
members of the committee privileges and
elections with instructions to investigate. If.
in their judgment after investigation. there
were found 60 be good reasons why Turpe
should be denied admission, the committee or
Mr.. Hoar, the chairman, was authorized TO make
the objection when he was called up to be sworn
in On this motion Mr.. Riddieberger voted
mo-" and his voice was the only one raised in
the negative. Why he voted as he did is not
known. Whether it was because he was in
favor OF making a fight, because he believed
in admitting Turpie without objection remains
to be seen, although his utterances during the
debate seemed to give color to the former al
teruatiye.

THE SHALLOW BARK.

As noise, if it succeeds in attracting at

that:

CHICAGO. Dec. 5.-Ths Rev. DR. John Will
hanson gave to the other Methodist ministers,
at their weekly meeting to-day, a wonderful
experience which he had the past year. He is
the pastor of the Michigau-avenue Methodist
Church, and year ago his health was so bad
that his physician told him he would have TO
rest a whole year. It was with great reluctance
that he agreed to do this; it the greatest
sacrifice of his life. Some months afterward
this weighed on his heart much that he
cried aloud unto the Lord for divine aid. DR..
Williamson stated that at home he held a sweet
and indescribable communion with God, in
which be was assured that his health would be
restored. His physician had but recently as
sured him that he was as well he ever
before, and he sscribes this wonderful cure
entirely to divine healing The relating of DR..
Williamson's experience caused quite sensa-
tion, and many there who agreed with
him that it was example of divine healing.

Tho Home Teams Heavy Batting
Against the -Pelicans' Fielding
Hutchinson's Timely Two-Bagger
Saves the Club from Defeat-The
Memphis Series to Begin To-Day.
The home team played New Orleans
tweive-inning, tie game yesterday. 1t was
the prettiest game of the season. The visit
ors got the lead after hard fight, and held
it up to the ninth inning. The score then
stood to in the Pelicans' favor. With two
men out. Hutchinson stepped to the bat
and landed two-bagger well out in the field.
This opened the way for the locals, and they
raped Clark, the visitors boxman, for
four runs before the third man was out,
tieing the score. Neither side scored again.
In the twelfth inning darkness fell, and in
the last half of the inning the fielders could
hardly see the ball The visitors were anx-
ious to play to a finish but it was too dark,
and the umpire called the game.
From the start it was batting against
fielding, and the batters won. Clark had
good control of the ball, but he was not
effective. The locals batted him altogether
for % bases doubles and 20 singles.
Inc visitors hit Somers freely, but
failed to bunch their hits. They played a
splendid fielding game, but could not stand
up before Savannah's hard hitting. Dallas
made a fine record of three hits, two of
which were two-baggeIs, two runs, seven
put outs, three assists and no errors. He
gave Somers magnificent support, Reilly
led the batting with five hits, three being
two-baggers, netting him seven bases. Cart
wright led the batting for the visitors.
About 400 people saw the game. A good
many left in the ninth inning when. with
two men out and thePelicans four ahead, it
looked as though they had the game beyond
possibility of doubt. When the locals
began batting the crowd began cheering
and all of sudden the tide turned in their
favor. Sucks umpiring was bad for both
sides, but lie was not charged with partiality
His favors if there We're any, were about
equally divided. The following is the score:

The lumber longshoremen struck yester-
day morning for higher wages. The men
were all at the wharves ready to go to work,
but not stick Of lumber was moved.
Committees from the Lumbermen's Union
met the stevedores and demanded
an advance of Zoe. an hour. The
demand was refused, and the committees
notified the stevedores that the men would
not work until their wages are advanced.
There are lis members of the union
Eighteen struck last week and 81 yesterday.
1t is evident that they intend 10 stand out
for the advance. As soon as the stevedores
notified the men that they would not accede
to their demands the longshoremen quietly
left the wharves.
There were seven vessels in port loading
lumber on Wednesday Two finished load
ing and cleared yesterday. The crews were
quit, and the loading is going on
with very little delay. The strikers
did not attempt to interfere with the
crews nor TO influence anyone outside of
the union. They believe that the matter
will be arranged between the vessels and
the stevedores, and are confident that
the latter will come to their terms. A
meeting of the union was held last night,
and the men determined to stand out for
the advance until they get it,
The officers of the union say that the
men are satisfied with the hours and they
viii not demand any shortening Of
the day. The stevedores have not
decided what they will do. An
advance in longshoremen's wages means
higher charge for loading vessels, and the
whole matter rests upon the willingness or

increased charge. 1t was rumored last night
that partial agreement had been reached
and that sixteen longshoremen would return
to work this morning
